Hi Johann,
Here are the details ---
I have two tables - I need to grab the id of a contact from first
table and use it to update a field status with values as Sent, Request
etc. in another table id being the same in both the table.
Now in the below code, "Send Request" is just a button.
links = [lambda row: A(SPAN(_class='icon plus'),'Send
Request',_class='positive
button',_href=URL("default","reqstatus",args=[row.id]))]
This code is using the id (row.id) from my contact table which is
fine. Now, I want to use this id to send a request (using "Send
Request" button in this grid) through reqstatus function. reqstatus is
a separate function in my controller.
My problem is how can I use the row.id of this sqlform.grid any
particular row and send a status update for a different table using
this id.
In short i want to use the above [row.id] in a separate function and
pass it in a query. How can I achieve it? I hope I am clear this time.
Let me know if case you need more details.
I checked the below link - but could not get it
